Dr. Daniela Graf from Max Rubner-Institut, Karlsruhe, Germany will present on overview on the role of diet on the human gut microbiota during the 12th World Congress on Polyphenols Applications: Bonn Polyphenols 2018 which will be held at the University of Bonn, Germany in September 25-28, 2018.

According to Dr. Graf:Diet is a key factor that influences gut microbiota composition. Specific diets e.g. Western diets have an impact on gut microbiota composition and thus it’s functionality, which in turn will influence host health. The aim of this speech is to summarize how diet can affect gut microbiota composition and it will give an overview of recently published evidence from human in vivo studies on the gut microbiota-modulating effects of diet.
